David
James House is a human who resides in the capital village of a land
known as Oregon – a cool, cloudy, rainy region of a developing world
called Earth. This planet is located in one of the backwaters of the
galaxy, orbiting an unremarkable sun in one of the Milky Way’s minor
outer belts of stars.
His series of novels about secret human contact
with an advanced civilization is no cause for concern at this time.
However, with the publication of
Survivor Planet, as well as Book 1, The Key to Space,
subsequent installments of the Space-Worthy Chronicles will
receive further scrutiny for evidence of extraterrestrial knowledge.
The author’s low-wage jobs in state government and journalism make him particularly vulnerable
to financial enticement. He might write anything – passing it off as
"speculative fiction" – in exchange for a few kilograms of gold.
If necessary, the author will be acquired for
interrogation and perhaps erasure of any sensitive information from
his memory.
But thus far, no one on Earth is taking him
seriously, and that is just as well.
